Cayenne's Turtle 145 admonitory and censorian jurisdiction of the minister and elders. We therefore laid it down as a rule to ourselves, that, in the case of transgressions on the part of the inhabit- ants of the new district of Cayenneville, we should subject them rigorously to a fine ; but that for the farming-lads, we would put it in their option to pay the fine, or stand in the kirk.
We conformed also in another matter to the times, by con- senting to baptize occasionally in private houses.... Hitherto it had been a strict rule with me only to baptize from the pulpit. Other parishes, however, had long been in the practice of this relaxation of ancient discipline.
But all this on my part, was not done without compunction of spirit; for I was of opinion, that the principle of Presby- terian integrity should have been maintained to the utter- most. Seeing, however, the elders set on an alteration, I distrusted my own judgment, and yielded myself to the considerations that weighed with them; for they were true men, and of a godly honesty, and took the part of the poor in all contentions with the heritors, often to the hazard and damage of their own temporal welfare.
